Tree Planting – Lake Forest Oak

It’s not very often things happen right the first time and even less often things go well enough that a person might be prompted to write and express his pleasure at the welcome outcome. This is one of those times for me. Chris Mest was wonderfully informed, and both patient and forthcoming as we discussed what needed to be done with my trees. On the day of the pruning, Felipe and the rest of his crew, were courteous, professional, hard working and neat as pins. And the results are outstanding. The trees look better, the patio gets more sunlight, the whole yard feels airier and I no longer have to dodge low hanging limbs as I mow the lawn! Your people did a terrific job. Thanks to all of them. You can bet I’ll be recommending Urban Arborist at every opportunity.

Why an Arborist?

Arborists specialize in the care of individual trees. They are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care. Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly. Proper tree care is an investment that can lead to substantial returns. Well cared for trees are attractive and can add value to your property. Poorly maintained trees can be a significant liability. Pruning or removing trees, especially large trees, can be dangerous work. Tree work should be done only by those trained and equipped to work safely in trees.
